A Little Red Lipstick Goes a Long Way

I was heading uptown on Madison Avenue when I noticed this gorgeous woman walk by. I saw a flash of red lipstick, and knew I had to turn around and ask if I could take her photo. The Advanced Style ladies always tell me that a bright shade of red lipstick is the best accessory. I think this woman is proof of that theory, don't you?

Lipstick is a "Must" at almost any age over thirty, and especially when the hair turns silver and the teint more faint. This Lady looks very elegant and vivid - a mélange that is not so often to be seen. She looks interesting and interested.

Great bones! Great lips! Wish I had a mouth like hers - turning 60 next month and my upper lip, never very big to begin with, has practically disappeared! When I wear lipstick it looks like I've only half a mouth! A beautiful woman, elegantly outfitted and comfortable in her own skin! That's the best kind of beauty.

i am blown away by not only how beautiful and well styled she is, but how there is something playful about her expression. she is exquisite. and i do so love how the red lips and nails look against her perfectly pale skin. such an example of aging beautifully!

Hi Ari. I love the hat and coat she is wearing. Very very chic and the little purse, very nice. Her bangles too make the picture. She has outlined her lips beautifully and the the red lipstick and nail polish really complete the picture. She has warm looking eyes. Did I tell you I went out and got red lipstick and matching nail polish? Well I did.:)) Have a great day. She is just so beautiful.

AS A CHILD GROWING UP, I REMEMBER MY MOTHER WEARING NO MAKE UP, JUST RED LIPSTICK. SHE WAS THE MOTHER OF 7, AND PROBABLY KNEW IF SHE HAD NO TIME TO DO ANYTHING ELSE... THE RED LIPS WERE A MUST. SHE WAS A SMART LADY.

Ari.....I love your blog! And yes, red lipstick, along with the lipliner as this lady has so exquisitely applied, is something I never leave home without!!!Kudos to you for appreciating ageless, timeless beauty, and the wisdom to express it.

What a tremendous gift you are giving to the world! Your blog is phenomenal. Both of my grandmothers looked after themselves beautifully and their finishing touch was always a pop of deep red lipstick. Fierce!Thank you for all you do!
